Sven-Harrys Konstmuseum is operated by the Byggmästare Sven-Harrys Konst- och Bostadsstiftelse foundation, which works to promote activities in the fields of art history, design and architecture.

On the roof, there is a precise replica of the former home of founder and philanthropist Sven-Harry, the 18th century farmhouse Ekholmsnäs. In this unique setting, we show a private collection of paintings, sculpture, furniture, and textile art by a variety of artists, including Carl Fredrik Hill, Ernst Josephson, Helene Schjerfbeck, Edvard Munch, August Strindberg, Gio Ponti, and Märta Måås-Fjetterström.

Who was Dick Bengtsson? A conversation between Cecilia Edefalk and Daniel Birnbaum.
During Stockholm Art Week, the museum will host a talk, posing the question: Who was Dick Bengtsson? A conversation between Cecilia Edefalk and Daniel Birnbaum. In this spring's major Dick Bengtsson exhibition "The Unseen", art critic and curator Daniel Birnbaum and acclaimed artist Cecilia Edefalk meet in a conversation about one of Sweden's most mythical artists. Who was he really? And how is his life reflected in his enigmatic art? Often called "an artist's artist", Bengtsson has both fascinated, challenged - and left traces that continue to raise questions. The talk will be held in swedish.

Tickets can be bought on site and online here.
